I need to really be more active on here Cause like I want to be more active in the #wildlifeconservation community but I’m always so anxious 😅 But as a #recentgraduate of Virginia Tech, I really want to branch out and expand upon my career professionalism and make new friends

So being a recent graduate I want to ask for all the aspiring conservationists out there, what are some good workshops, trainings and certifications to seek for starting a #conservationjob, #ecologyjob, #wildlifejob or any general #conservation or #wildlife career.

Happy New Year everyone! Here’s to a great 2023!

Folks, is there a google doc or a website that lists all the PhD positions (conservation/ecology) available preferably in North America? Asking for a friend who lives in Canada. (Hence the preference for opportunities in North America).

A congratulation to everyone on the team! It’s was an honor to work alongside such brilliant minds to compile and share our research. I encourage everyone to give this a read and share it around, and support my amazing colleagues who helped make this possible!
